V for VICTORY!

I did it. I didn't know if it could be done, but I did it. Well, two things actually. I know you're sitting there on the edge of your seat saying, "What, Sarah, what?! Tell me, tell me!" And I will. 

Thing # 1: I FOUND MASCARA FOR $9.95!! And you better believe I bought it, especially after the rampage I went on in the last post. I just happened to be walking down a street on my way to work this morning, when I caught a glimpse of a 50% off sign in a drug store window and felt inclined to wander in and check-it out. I am singing "Hallelujah!" that I did, because there in the half-off bin was mascara! You can all hold-off on mailing your enormous packages of mascara to me for the time being, the gods in the heavens above heard my cries and answered. 

Thing # 2: I CAN LAP PEOPLE! I really never thought this day would come, but this evening Frank actually complimented me and my lapping abilities! Can you believe it? Because I honestly cannot. I did it exactly as he had shown me, with finesse and pizazz and all that jazz, and while he was watching. And then as I was walking past he said, "You did that exactly right, Sarah. That was spot on." I am singing "Hallelujah" even louder now! 

This has been a victorious day. Time to go celebrate!
